Objective To discuss the application value of comfort medical mode in patients with uterine fibroids receiving interventional embolization therapy during hospitalization.Methods A total of 27 patients with uterine fibroids,who received interventional embolization at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University of China,were enrolled in this study.The patient's basic data,including age,the sum of the maximum diameter of the measurable uterine fibroids and the hemoglobin level at admission,were collected.After admission and before discharge,the self-efficacy scale score,Becker anxiety scale score,and positive and negative emotions scale score were determined in all the patients.According to the different medical management mode adopted during the hospitalization,the patients were divided into study group(n=14)and control group(n=13).Comfort medical mode guided by quantitative evaluation strategy was employed for the patients of the study group,while conventional management mode was adopted for the patients of the control group.SPSS 26.0 software was used for data analysis.Measurement data within group were analyzed by independent sample t-test,and measurement data between groups were analyzed by paired sample t-test,and P＜0.05 was defined as a statistically significant difference.Results There were no statistically significant differences in the basic data between the two groups,and no statistically significant differences in the self-efficacy scale score,Becker anxiety scale score,and positive and negative emotions scale score at admission existed between the two groups.In the study group,the self-efficacy score and positive emotion score at discharge were strikingly higher than those at admission(P＜0.001),and the anxiety degree and negative emotion score at discharge were obviously lower than those at admission(P＜0.001).In the control group,the scores of the above-mentioned scales at discharge did not differ from those at admission.Conclusion The comfort medical mode guided by quantitative evaluation strategy has better clinical effect in patients with uterine fibroids receiving interventional embolization therapy,it can improve patient's comfortableness degree during hospitalization period.

In 2025, the American Cancer Society published "Cancer statistics, 2025", which projected cancer data for the upcoming year based on incidence data collected by central cancer registries (through 2021) and mortality data obtained from the National Center for Health Statistics (through 2022). Similarly, the National Cancer Center of China released "Cancer incidence and mortality in China, 2022" in December 2024, analyzing data from 22 cancer registries across the country. This study provides a comparative analysis of cancer incidence and mortality trends in China and the United States during the same period, with a focus on sex- and age-specific distributions and long-term changes in cancer patterns. Long-term trends indicate that lung and liver cancer mortality rates in China have declined, primarily due to tobacco control measures and hepatitis B vaccination programs. However, the burden of gastric and esophageal cancers remains substantial. In the United States, mortality rates for colorectal and lung cancers have continued to decline, largely attributed to widespread screening programs and advances in immunotherapy. As economic growth and social development, China’s cancer profile is gradually shifting towards patterns observed in countries with high human development index. However, the prevention and control of upper gastrointestinal cancers remains a critical public health challenge that requires further attention.

Objective:To establish a method for determining the sialylation levels of N-glycan profiles based on ion-exchange chromatography in glycoprotein drugs.Methods:The separation was performed in a column picking with anion-exchange resin(4.6 mm × 250 mm,5 μm,or equivalent).Mobile phase A was 20％ acetonitrile solution,while mobile phase B was a 20％acetonitrile solution containing 0.1 mol·L-1 ammonium formate(pH 4.5).The flow rate was 0.60 mL·min-1.Detection was performed using a fluorescence detector with excita-tion and emission wavelengths of 330 and 420 nm,respectively.The injection volume was 5 μL.Results:Within the target loading sample range of 40％ to 160％,the peak area showed a good linear relationship with protein concentration(r＞0.99).The average recovery rates at three concentration levels were 106.25％,100.00％,and 106.67％,respectively.The limit of quantification was 0.03％.Conclusion:This method is suitable for detecting the sialylation levels of N-glycan profiles in various glycoprotein drugs.

Objective:To analyze the burden and trends of noncommunicable chronic disease(NCD) attributable to metabolic factors in China from 1990 to 2021.Methods:Data from the Global Burden of Diseases(GBD) 2021 database were utilized to describe changes in mortality and disability-adjusted life years(DALYs) of NCD in China from 1990 to 2021. Stratified analyses were conducted by age, sex, sociodemographic index(SDI), and related risk factors. Statistical analyses and predictions were conducted using the age-period-cohort model and the Nordpred model.Results:In 2021, the age-standardized mortality rate and age-standardized DALYs rate of NCD attributable to metabolic factors in China were 227.56 per 100 000 and 4 829.39 per 100 000, respectively. Their average annual percentage changes were -0.76%( P<0.001) and -0.77%( P<0.001). Overall, the burden decreased progressively with higher SDI levels. Analysis using the age-period-cohort model indicated reduced birth cohort and period effects for metabolic factor-attributable NCD, while age effects rose significantly. The minimum relative risk( RR) value was observed in the 15-19 age group( RR=0.01), and the maximum RR value occurred in the 95-99 age group( RR=996.86). The overall rising mortality trend indicated that age effects are the predominant driver at present. Projections estimate that by 2046, deaths from metabolic factor-attributable NCD in China will reach 8 189 563, with an age-standardized mortality rate of 236.95 per 100 000. Conclusions:China continues to face a substantial burden of NCD linked to metabolic factors, with older adults, males, and individuals with hypertension, diabetes, and prediabetes identified as key populations requiring targeted interventions.

Objective:To investigate the effect of low frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS)com-bined with rehabilitation robot on balance function and motor ability of stroke patients.Method:Sixty stroke patients with hemiplegia who met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into the rT-MS group(group A),the lower limb robot group(group B)and the rTMS combined with lower limb robot group(group C),with 20 subjects in each group.All the three groups also received conventional rehabilita-tion treatment for 4 weeks.The Berg balance scale(BBS)and Pro-kin balance test were used to evaluate the balance function of the three groups before and after treatment.The Fugl-Meyer assessment of lower extremity motor function(FMA-L)and functional ambulation category(FAC)scale were used to evaluate the patients'lower extremity function and walking ability.Result:Before treatment,there was no significant difference in BBS,balance test,FMA-L and FAC among the three groups(P＞0.05).After treatment,the BBS,balance test,FMA-L and FAC of the three groups were significantly improved compared with those before treatment(P＜0.05).The improvement of the BBS,bal-ance test,FMA-L and FAC in group C was significantly higher than that in group A and group B(P＜0.05).Conclusion:Low frequency rTMS combined with lower limb rehabilitation robot has a significant effect on bal-ance function and motor ability in stroke patients.

Objective With the development of manned space missions to the moon and space exploration,extravehicular activities become more frequent and extravehicular mission become more complex,which puts forward higher requirements for the extravehicular spacesuit.In order to ensure the ergonomics of spacesuit,the flexible joints are usually adopted in the limbs of spacesuit.The structural design of large angle of movement and low resistance joints is the basic for ensuring the ergonomics of spacesuit.Methods This study established a method of spacesuit joint structure to analysis the motion characteristic of typical joints.Firstly,the structure and activity characteristics of the spacesuit and lunar space suits were comprehensively analyzed,and the activity characteristics of different typical structure are qualitatively analyzed based on existing empirical method.Then,the dynamics of typical structure was analyzed by finite element model.By studying the change trend of motion of spacesuit joint with motion angle,and the motion characteristic curve was obtained.Finally,the model was studied according to different structural size parameters.The influence of structural parameters on the motion characteristics was analyzed,and the curves was obtained to provide a basis for design of spacesuit motion joint structure.Results Through the above analysis,the motion characteristics of different typical structure are obtained qualitatively.And the influence of different structure parameters on the motion characteristics was analyzed.This establishes the method basis for structure design.Conclusion The study was carried out a method based on finite element model for joint motion analysis,which is suitable for the design of typical joint structure of spacesuit.

Cemental tear is a rare and indetectable condition unless obvious clinical signs present with the involvement of surrounding periodontal and periapical tissues. Due to its clinical manifestations similar to common dental issues, such as vertical root fracture, primary endodontic diseases, and periodontal diseases, as well as the low awareness of cemental tear for clinicians, misdiagnosis often occurs. The critical principle for cemental tear treatment is to remove torn fragments, and overlooking fragments leads to futile therapy, which could deteriorate the conditions of the affected teeth. Therefore, accurate diagnosis and subsequent appropriate interventions are vital for managing cemental tear. Novel diagnostic tools, including cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), microscopes, and enamel matrix derivatives, have improved early detection and management, enhancing tooth retention. The implementation of standardized diagnostic criteria and treatment protocols, combined with improved clinical awareness among dental professionals, serves to mitigate risks of diagnostic errors and suboptimal therapeutic interventions. This expert consensus reviewed the epidemiology, pathogenesis, potential predisposing factors, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of cemental tear, aiming to provide a clinical guideline and facilitate clinicians to have a better understanding of cemental tear.
